Just sayin man, don't lump me into the newbie group, I'm just wondering if I'm missing something on the setup.
Are you sure you are positioned with your sitbones supporting your weight?
Maybe try the saddle a nudge forward and really make an effort to plant your bones in the saddle.
There are times when without noticing, I slide a hair forward. Once the pain starts, I slide back to where I should be.
